Data from the West Sumatra Provincial Health Office (2018), DM cases totalled 44,280 cases, with a DM prevalence of 1.6% in 2018. Self-efficacy plays an important role in controlling blood sugar levels. Lack of self-efficacy causes the patient's blood sugar levels to become abnormal, resulting in a risk of complications.

The results showed that 78.7% of the respondents have hyperglycemia, 72.0% with non-compliant to their diet limitation, and 68.0% with low self-efficacy. A relationship exists between diet compliance and blood sugar levels in type 2 DM patients.
